Operation "Before Dawn" - February 6th, 1983

Good morning General, this is the situation: the Iranians have started the operation "Before Dawn" to have a jumpboard to Baghdad and Basra.
They will not attack along the street to al amarah because it is mined and to heavily fortified. So they have to go trough the marches and we can shoot them from the hill. The problem is the following: despite we have good firing positions we are outnumbered. Do your best!

Historical backround:
Operation Before the Dawn was the first of the three costly human-wave attacks of 1983 in the Amarah area 200 kilometers southeast of Baghdad. It was launched by Iran.
On the morning of February 6, Iran attacked a 40-kilometer stretch near Al Amarah, via marshes and hill ridges. Iran's six-division attack managed to break through with the help of air, artillery, and armor support from the Regular Army. The Iraqis, though outnumbered, responded with 200 helicopter sorties per day to support the defenders. The sorties proved so effective that Iraqi tanks were reduced to effective defense roles. Not surprisingly, well over 6,000 Iranian troops perished on the first day of the operation.
